Why I do not believe in a Independence Day, but rather a National Day Celebrations/"Throwing Out the Pirates Day":
Because it gives legitimacy to British rule.
I do not recognize British Rule, there was only British Looting.
I do not recognize British rule in the first place, so I do not recognize getting "independence" from them.
What I do recognize is a day to celebrate "Throwing out the Pirates Day" seems more apt.

So Happy National Day and Happy "Throwing Out the Pirates Day" to everyone.
